Granted the Mk XII had already lasted 48.000 years, but who's to say that it was even active during that time? Could've been set to activate the moment the gate went active which means it's just been laying around dormant and not been used at all until Sheppard came trough.Daniel to Thor: Wait, you're actually saying you need someone dumber then you are?
Jack: You may have come to the right place.

I actually found the idea of a Naquadah generator lasting that long to be a bit silly really. It would have been better if they said they had a ZPM powering it.Please do me a huge favour and help me be with the love of my life.

As no one seemingly had any faith in McKay's plan actually working, the silly thing would be if they left a ZPM in Atlantis purely on the off chance that his plan might work and the timeline could be changed.
While it might be plausibly for the main SGA characters to do this, the IOA are nowhere near as long-sighted and would've just thought about the small picture. They never would've agreed to it!

the mark 12 did almost nothing during the 48000 years so it could last really long and the zpms were depleted after 3333 years because they had to hold back an ocean an hundreds of feet deep- Friendship is like peeing on yourself: everyone can see it, but only you get the warm feeling that it brings.

Originally posted by MathiasE View PostYeah, the point i was trying to make was that the Mk XII are most likely far from ZPM in power since a ZPM could hold back the ocean for such a long time while the Mk XII wouldnt even be able to keep it up together with just a few other systems for a thousand years.
does naquadah even have a half-life?
